Christian Gonzalez a bright spot in Pats loss NECN [Video]

Not much went right for the New England Patriots on Sunday as they fell to the Arizona Cardinals for their fourth consecutive defeat.

Jerod Mayo’s group failed to convert a third down (0-6) in the 30-17 loss. The offensive play-calling was a head-scratcher throughout the game, and it was made into even more of an issue when Mayo seemingly called out offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt in his postgame press conference.

Defensively, the Patriots allowed Cardinals running back James Conner to rush for 110 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries, including a 53-yarder. And although Pats second-year cornerback Christian Gonzalez shut down Arizona’s prized rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., the defense allowed tight end Trey McBride to haul in a game-high nine receptions for 87 yards.
